ABOUT WASM ARCADE
WebAssembly (WASM) is a binary instruction format that runs at near-native speed inside every modern browser. By compiling game engines and emulators to WASM, entire games — from 16-bit arcade boards to 3D open worlds — can execute client-side in a browser tab, with WebGL handling the graphics and no plugin in sight.
WASM Arcade curates games that run this way. You click, the engine downloads in seconds, and you play. Your saves live in your own browser's storage — no accounts, no cloud, no waiting.
HOW IT WORKS
Runs in a browser tab
Click a game and it starts. No downloads, no installers, no launcher.
Real engines, compiled
Open-source engines and emulators compiled to WebAssembly run the games at full speed.
Your progress stays yours
Saves are stored locally in your browser. Close the tab, come back, continue.
